Description So I decided to give this dragon a name. He's called Syvr. (Not to be confused with Sivir from LoL. XD) He would have had a longer name but I accidentally hit enter and saved the image with that name, so... it's gonna stay, I think. A slight change from my usual dragon designs; this one has fur down its back instead of fins/spines.

I was trying out OpenCanvas just because, and drew this sketch. It was just supposed to be a sketch, but I really liked it. However, OC isn't *really* a great program for doing finished works, so I imported it into Photoshop and make this.

Simple and easy cell shading. I just felt like being lazy this time I guess.

Shout out to ~SamuelDOra for watching me and giving pointers while I drew.

Medium: Wacom Bamboo tablet in Photoshop Elements 8
Time: 5-6 hours
Completed: 5 May 2013

Please comment/critique! I really feel like the lighting could have been better, so if you have any tips regarding that I'd really appreciate it.

Partially because I was there when you drew it, and partially because it reminds me of how you would look sort of.

Well, good, because half of the purpose of drawing this guy was to try stuff out for me.

That dragon looks way awesome. You should draw more pictures with this character!

Also, speaking of LoL, I've been playing more XD

Zeimyth In reply to 8-SereneShadows-8 [2013-05-06 13:33:41 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! Hmm, you think so? He's still not really an official character or anything. Just a cool-looking dragon with a name. I want to work on character design, so if I start really practicing that then I might end up drawing lots of named dragons once and never a second time. But who knows?

You've been playing it? How's that been going for you?

8-SereneShadows-8 In reply to Zeimyth [2013-05-07 03:36:01 +0000 UTC]

Definitely get a name, and practice drawing it in all circumstances and totally make it your own!

It's been okay. I either dominate games or die.

Zeimyth In reply to 8-SereneShadows-8 [2013-05-07 03:47:00 +0000 UTC]

In all circumstances, huh? XD I guess that's the best way to learn the character's personality, huh? I should try that sometime... Take a character and draw him or her every day for like a week.

That's actually not such a bad idea!

Hee, well, that's how my games go too, usually. XD So you must be doing alright.

Well, keep practicing. You'll keep getting better. And you've got your husband there to help give you tips!

8-SereneShadows-8 In reply to Zeimyth [2013-05-07 18:34:11 +0000 UTC]

True, although sometimes when he gives me tips, I end up freaking out over what to do that second and die

Zeimyth In reply to 8-SereneShadows-8 [2013-05-08 04:26:00 +0000 UTC]

Oh, I can totally relate to that. XD If you take too long thinking you freeze and end up messing up instead. >.< You gotta be able to act without thinking. It just takes practice.

This looks really nice ^^

OpenCanvas is pretty minimal; hit and miss. Mostly just fun for scribbling with friends x3

Zeimyth In reply to RykenAaelgrin [2013-05-06 13:30:39 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much!

Yup, and that's exactly what I was using it for - scribbling. I'm glad I took the time to refine this scribble, though.
